Morphology
The phrase is directly compositional: 'recombinant' (created by gene combination) modifies 'protein' (an organic molecule), so together they straightforwardly mean a protein produced by genetic recombination. Although the term is technical and may be rare in everyday use, its meaning follows regular adjective+noun composition and is inferable by a learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Recombinant protein comes from recombinant, which means putting gene 'instructions' together in a new way so a different cell can make the protein. So a recombinant protein is a protein 'made by mixing genes' and grown in a lab cell for medicine or research.
